A Classic!
Added 2/3/2010
This beautiful classic speaks for itself. This movie is so many things and speaks in so many ways to life itself and the value and significance of our mortality.

Pale imitation
Added 1/13/2010
This movie is a pale, watered-down imitation of Wim Wenders classic "Wings of Desire". See "Wings" instead.

City of Angels
Added 1/4/2010
An angel comes to earth and falls in love with the woman he's assigned to watch over. The actors deserve a lot of the credit. As an angel experiencing human sensation for the first time, Nicolas Cage's power of concentration is such that he can convince an audience it's witnessing his first touch, his first kiss. There's no doubting his tenderness, his elation or his innocence. City of Angels maintains the premise that there are angels everywhere, moving invisibly among us, laying hands on people when they need steadying. Very entertaining movie, I loved it.

This movie is one of a kind. It has such a heartfelt meaning. I don't think anyone can watch this movie and say anything derogitory about it.

Cage is great, this story is the worst, really
Added 7/18/2009
I really like Cage's acting. He is great in "Next" and all the National Treasure movies (I am hoping there are many of them). But I have "City of Angels" listed as the worst movie ever made. Now, why would I say that? It glamorizes the "real very first sin" and that is an angel disobeying God by rejecting the place God placed them in (the first sin was when an angel wanted God's place). Yes, I know it's just a movie but this is literally the lowest possible moral rung. There is no going back for an angel. There is no plan of redemption. A fallen angel goes from the best possible to the worst possible condition without the possibility of return. The other angels would not look upon him with any form of admiration but rather with horror at what he did to destroy himself and it would greatly negatively affect the lady if he was allowed to contact her at all at that point. He would be the worst thing for her and his "affection" would be the very opposite of true love. It is a sad, sad tale of the true beginning of all woes. This movie confuses the results of good and evil.
